The best Apple headphones are $40 off
The new AirPods Max 2 are getting their first decent discount, currently $509.99 (originally $549.99), their lowest price yet. The biggest upgrades to the AirPods Max 2 include the new “dynamic range” amplifier and Apple’s H2 chip (no longer the H1). But there are many other upgrades that are also worth noting.
The M4 iPad Air 11-inch is $80 off
The latest iPad Air, the M4, is already decently discounted despite being released in March. When the 11-inch iPad Air M4 dropped, Walmart undercut other retailers by offering it for $559—though Amazon has beaten that price, currently selling it for $519.99 (originally $599.99).
My favorite travel headphones are $200 off
The JBL Tour One M3 headphones are my favorite traveling headphones, but Lifehacker writer Stephen Johnson said he liked them so much they turned him into an audio snob. They’re on sale for $349.94 (originally $449.95), the lowest price Amazon has ever offered.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro come with a $30 gift card
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 are $173.72 (originally $179.99) and come with a $20 Amazon gift card, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro go for $249.99 and come with a $30 Amazon gift card. The Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 are strikingly similar to the Apple AirPods 4 in their design, with noise cancellation and the absence of silicone eartips that go inside your ears. They come with Hi-Res audio, IP54 for water-resistance, a Live Translation feature similar to Apple’s, a new design, improvements in call quality, and direct access to ask questions to AI and receive responses through the earbuds.
The Samsung Odyssey G9 is $600 off
The Samsung Odyssey G9 is a 49-inch gaming monitor with some impressive specs, including a 240Hz refresh rate and a 1 ms response time. It’s available for $699.99 (originally $1,299.99 at launch), $20 off the lowest price it has ever been.
This Marshall portable speaker is $70 off
This Marshall Bluetooth Speaker is a modern, high-quality speaker housed in a cabinet patterned after the famous Marshall Stack amplifier. It’s designed to be taken outdoors, resist the elements with its waterproof IP67 rating, and play for long sessions with its 32-hour playtime. It does all these things well while looking and feeling premium. The sound it produces is distortion-free, even at max volume, which is surprising for a small portable speaker, and it’s loud for its size. You can get it for $129.99 (originally $199.99).
What do you think so far?
This 100-inch Hisense QLED is $1,200 off
This Hisense U8QG QLED TV is a huge 100-inch QLED TV—and right now, it’s more than $1,200 off, taking it down to $2,797.96, its lowest price ever. With Mini-LED backlighting, this TV gets super bright—it can hit up to 5,000 nits peak brightness and has up to 5,600 local dimming zones. This results in deep blacks, bold contrast, and high-performing HDR in Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and hybrid log gamma (HLG).
The Pixel Buds 2a are $20 off
The Pixel Buds 2a aren’t just a stripped-down Pixel Buds Pro 2. PCMag even called them the best earphones for Android users, and the hardware helps explain why. Google added active noise cancellation to the A lineup for the first time, improved the battery life, and redesigned the fit so they are more secure. Add the fact that they’re very affordable at $109.99 (originally $129.99) right now, and you have a winning formula.
Both M5 MacBook Air models are $150 off
If you’re interested in the new M5 MacBook, Amazon is the place to buy: It’s the only major retailer offering a $150 discount on either size the laptop. The 13-inch MacBook Air is $949.99 (down from $1,099), and the 15-inch MacBook Air is $1,149.99 (originally $1,299).
This Ultrawide Samsung gaming monitor is $300 Off
Samsung is discounting its 49-inch Samsung Odyssey OLED G93SC to $899.99 (originally $1,599.99). It’s a curved ultrawide monitor that offers an immersive experience you can’t get from regular gaming monitors, since even your peripheral vision gets to be part of the action.
